EDITORS COMMENTS
This Empire Marketing Board poster, titled 'Empire Tobacco' and dated between 1927 and 1933, showcases a striking image of a confident white British man, seated in the lush greenery of what is now Zimbabwe or Nyasaland. He is depicted in the prime of his health, smoking a pipe with an air of contentment, surrounded by bountiful tobacco leaves and the vibrant colors of the African landscape. The poster, part of the Empire Marketing Board's advertising campaign during the 1920s and 1930s, aimed to promote the economic and cultural connections between the British Empire's various territories. In this particular advertisement, the focus is on the tobacco industry, which thrived in the region during this time. The poster's design is a testament to the artistic and graphic prowess of the era, with its bold lines, vivid colors, and intricate details. The use of the native figures in the background, dressed in traditional attire, adds an authentic touch to the image and reinforces the idea of the Empire's diverse and far-reaching influence. Despite its age, this poster continues to capture the imagination and evoke a sense of nostalgia for the colonial past. It serves as a visual reminder of the rich history and complex relationships that existed between the British Empire and its various territories during the 1920s and 1930s.
